ABC: Ukraine and the United States have agreed on the terms of the peace treaty

According to Isna, a US official told ABC News today (Tuesday) that a Ukrainian delegation has reached an agreement with the United States on the terms of a possible peace treaty.

According to this American official, US Army Secretary Dan Driscoll held secret talks with a Russian delegation in the United Arab Emirates on Monday to follow up on the recent talks with Ukraine in Geneva, which were conducted with the aim of advancing the peace process in Ukraine.

The American official said: “The Ukrainians have agreed to the peace agreement. “There are still a few small details to be worked out, but they have agreed to a peace agreement.”

The unannounced talks with the Russian delegation on Monday followed talks between the US and Ukraine in Geneva this week, and are the latest sign of progress in a new US plan to revive the peace process in Ukraine.

US Army spokesman Jeffrey Talbert said today: “The Secretary of the Army and his team have been in talks with the Russian delegation to achieve a lasting peace in Ukraine. Negotiations are going well and we remain optimistic. In these negotiations, Driscoll is fully coordinated with the White House and various institutions of the American government.”

Neither Ukraine nor Russia have officially confirmed the presence of their delegations in Abu Dhabi.

According to ABC News, the 28-point peace plan presented by the United States to Ukraine in Geneva has now become a 19-point plan, which no longer includes the amnesty clause for actions taken during the war, as well as restrictions on the future size of the Ukrainian army.

Ukrainian President Volodymyr Zelenskiy said in an overnight speech on Monday that more work needed to be done on the revised plan.

After the talks over the weekend, Russian officials said they had not received any updates on what was discussed in Geneva or on the reforms made after the talks between U.S. and Ukrainian officials.

At the end of the Geneva negotiations, Rubio returned to the United States and Driscoll went to Abu Dhabi to have a secret meeting with a Russian delegation; The meeting in which the changes applied in Washington’s 28-point plan were discussed.

According to the American media, the key role of the US Secretary of the Army in the efforts of the Donald Trump administration to revive the peace talks was revealed after the conversation between Trump and his deputy JD Vance 2 weeks ago.

Normally, the Secretary of the Armed Forces does not intervene in such an important diplomatic initiative; But ABC reports that sending a military official to Russia and Ukraine is likely to be seen as a positive move.
